We've got a case of "criminals' rights vs. common sense" going on up here now. A convicted child molester with 50 charges against him was released on parole after the original judge who sentenced him gave him a longer sentence than was asked for by the prosecution because he felt the man was liable to reoffend. The fellow cut the electronic tracking devise off and is now at large. Several schools in the area where they figure he is have been in lock-down for two days and the police are frantically looking for the perp. Now, where's the common sense in letting someone like that out on parole in the first place? And if a tracing devise can be cut off that easily---?
